DESCRIPTION:
The site consists of approximately 41 acres. The property is zoned UR-2 (CD) and
will consist of 408 apartment units and approximately 1,265 LF of 6" PVC sewer
main on -site that will make up the private system. Flows from the project will be
sent to the McAlpine Creek, Irwin Creek, and Sugar Creek Wastewater Treatment
Plants (NPDES permit numbers NC0024970, NC0024945, NC0024937).
SEWER SYSTEM IMPROVEMENTS:
The proposed demand for this site will be approximately 56,855 gallons per day. The
demand is based on 408 apartment units at 135 gallons per day/unit, a pool with 165
users at 10 gallons per day/user and a Leasing office with 5 employees at 25 gallons
per day/employee. New mains are expected to have a minimum 50-year service life.

4. In the event the common expense allocation and separate fund(s) are not adequate for the construction,
repair, and maintenance ol'the Disposal System, the Declaration and Association Bylaws shall provide for
special assessments to cover such necessary costs. There shall be no limit on the amount of such
assessments, and the Declaration and Bylaws shall be provided such that special assessments can be made
as necessary at anytime.
5. If a wastewater collection system and wastewater treatment and/or disposal facility provided by any city,
town, village, county, water and sewer authorities, or other unit of government shall hereinafter become
available to serve the Development, the ASSOCIATION shall take such action as is necessary to cause the
existing and future wastewater of the Development to be accepted and discharged into said governmental
system, and shall convey or transfer as much of the Disposal System and such necessary easements as the
governmental unit mayrequire as condition of accepting the Development's wastewater.
6. Recognizing that it would be contrary to the public interest and to the public health, safety and welfare for
the ASSOCIATION to enter into voluntary dissolution without having made adequate provision for the
continued proper maintenance, repair and operation of its Disposal System, the ASSOCIATION shall
provide in the ASSOCIATION Bylaws that the ASSOCIATION shall not enter into voluntary dissolution
without first having transferred its said system and facilities to some person, corporation or other entity
acceptable to and approved by the COMMISSION bythe issuance of a permit.
7. The ASSOCIATION shall not transfer, convey, assign or otherwise relinquish or release its responsibility

SUBJECT: WATER AND SEWER FLOW ACCEPTANCE
STEELE CREEK MULTI -FAMILY
12813 WALKER BRANCH DRIVE, CHARLOTTE NC
CLTWATER TRACKING# 2017778
After an analysis of the sanitary sewer associated with the proposed design of project, Steele Creek
Multi -Family, it was determined that there is sufficient capacity to accommodate the proposed sewer
flow of 56,855 gallons per day (408 apartment units x 135 gpd/unit; 165 person pool x 10
gpd/person; 5 employee office x 25 gpd/employee) at the connection point(s) indicated on the
submitted utility plan for transmission to the McAlpine Creek Wastewater Treatment Plant; NPDES
permit number NC0024970, for treatment. This acceptance of flow is based upon the existing
capacity of the designated publicly owned treatments works. Please see attached NC DEQ FTSE
form.
Charlotte Water (CLTWater) agrees to furnish water to the subject project. The water quality to the
subject project is regulated by the State Drinking Water Act Amendments of 1986 and The Water
Supply Management Plan, PWS ID # 0160010 on file with the Public Water Supply Section of
NCDEQ. However, CLTWater cannot guarantee a constant pressure or quality of flow.
The applicant should understand that due to the involvement of other agencies and continuing
growth of the water system, the ability to provide service for future projects cannot be guaranteed
nor reserved. Connection to the CLTWater system is accepted on a first come, first served basis.
The applicant should understand that this letter is not authorization to construct or extend private
water or sewer systems, as the appropriate local or State permits are required prior to construction.
If the appropriate authorization to construct permits are not obtained construction has not started
within one (22) year of issuance of this flow acceptance, and payment for any service connections
have not been received within (2) year of issuance of this flow acceptance letter, this flow
acceptance approval shall be rescinded and a new flow acceptance request must be made. If you
have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me at [phone].

* The Firm Capacity of any pump station is defined as the maximum pumped flow that
can be achieved with the largest pump taken out of service.
** Design Average Daily Flow is the firm capacity of the pump station divided by a peaking
factor (pt) not less than 2.5.
*** A Planning Assessment Addendum shall be attached for each pump station located
between the project connection point and the WWTP where the Available Capacity is < 0.

III. Certification Statement:
I Carl Wilson certify to the best of my knowledge that the addition of
the volume of wastewater to be permitted in this project has been evaluated along the route to the
receiving wastewater treatment facility and that the flow from this project is not anticipated to
cause any capacity related sanitary sewer overflows or overburden any downstream pump station
en route to the receiving treatment plant under normal circumstances, given the implementation
of the planned improvements identified in the planning assessment where applicable. This
analysis has been performed in accordance with local established policies and procedures using
the best available data. This certification applies to those items listed above in Sections I and II
plus all attached planning assessment addendums for which I am the responsible party.
Signature of this form indicates acceptance of this wastewater flow.

PLANNING ASSESSMENT ADDENDUM (PAA)
Submit a planning assessment addendum for each pump station listed in Section II where Available
Capacity is < 0.
Pump Station (Name or Number):
Given that:
a. The proportion and amount of Obligated, Not Yet Tributary Daily Flow (C) accounts for
19 . 6 0 % and 0.969 MGD of the Available Capacity (E) in Pump Station
C.
Steele Creek : and that
The rate of activation of this obligated, not yet tributary capacity is currently approximately
0 . 969 MGD per year; and that
A funded Capital Project that will provide the required planned capacity, namely
Steele Creek LS Replacement and FM Relocation is in design or under construction with
planned completion in March 2018 ; and/or
d. The following applies:
The Steele Creek Pump Station replacement project will provide a new
regional facility capable of handling build -out flows in the basin.
Construction is expected to be complete by March 2018.
Therefore:
Given reasonably expected conditions and planning information, there is sufficient justification
to allow this flow to be permitted, without a significant likelihood of over -allocating capacity in
the system infrastructure.
I understand that this does not relieve the collection system owner from complying with G.S.
143-215.67(a) which prohibits the introduction of any waste in excess of the capacity of the
waste disposal system.
